Polyamide polymer matrix composition: BASFRecent Research Landscape

Thermal and mechanical degradation in structural components leads to premature part failure. Engineering the specific polyamide chemical composition stabilizes the polymer matrix to ensure long-term durability.

What technical problems is BASF addressing in Polyamide polymer matrix composition?

Thermal oxidative degradation

(17)evidences

Polyamide materials lose mechanical integrity and structural properties when exposed to sustained high temperatures. Preventing this failure mode extends the functional lifespan of components in extreme environments.

Surface degradation and optical haze

(17)evidences

Poor adhesion between dissimilar polymer layers leads to structural failure under mechanical stress. Improving layer bonding prevents fluid leakage and mechanical rupture in industrial piping.

Polymer combustion and ignition

(13)evidences

Inherent flammability of polyolefin and polyamide matrices during high-temperature exposure. Reducing ignition risk ensures regulatory compliance and material safety in structural applications.

Insufficient laser energy transmission

(12)evidences

Inadequate bonding between thermoplastic resins and metal inserts leads to structural delamination. Improving this interface prevents mechanical failure in hybrid components.
